“…The DAG card is capable of capturing or transmitting four 1000 Mb/s Ethernet streams, and includes a facility to synchronise its time-stamping clock to an external 1-PPS source [19]. The time-stamping clock is integral to the Ethernet capture hardware, giving an absolute error of ±100 ns from the 1-PPS reference and a relative error of ±8 ns between the four capture ports [20]. The card recorded the time when an Ethernet frame is received and a time stamp is then tagged to the captured frame.…”

Abstract--Substations are increasingly reliant on devices compatible with IEC61850 standards. However, the conformity of a devicewith the standards does not necessarily guarantee interoperability with devices from different manufacturers. The use of devices compatible with IEC61850 standards presents a challenge to many system integrators, especially due to lack of familiarity with features such as Generic Object Oriented Substation Event (GOOSE), reporting, sample values and the need for system redundancy. To facilitate a smooth implementation, all the features and the data exchanges between devices need to be tested to ensure the system operates correctly. It is important to determine the compatibility of the devices made by different manufacturers.This paper presents a technique to assess the performance of Merging Units from different manufacturers, when operating with Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) performing a distance protection function. The performance of the process bus with parallel redundancy protocol is evaluated using a closed loop approach involving a Real Time Digital Simulator.

“…The "appearance delay" was then determined by taking the fractional second component of each frame's timestamp. This gives the total time taken from the occurrence of the 1-PPS synchronising signal to the appearance of the frame on the Ethernet [20].…”

“…These functionalities are implemented in a smart substation, based on the IEC61850 communication protocol. With the high-speed Ethernet, the IEC 61850-based communication system can manage all the data available at the process level as well as at the station level [19]. By using the term "smart substation", we would like to emphasize the possibility that a conventional substation can be upgraded to a substation with a specific level of "smartness" in different ways, which has to be understood from an integrated perspective, i.e.…”

Abstract-One of the major functions of a smart substation (SS) is to restore power supply to interrupted customers as quickly as possible after an outage. The high cost of a smart substation limits its widespread utilization. In this paper, a smart substation allocation model (SSAM) to determine the optimal number and allocation of smart substations in a given distribution system is presented, with the upgrade costs of substations and the interruption costs of customers taken into account. Besides, the reliability criterion is also properly considered in the model. By linearization strategies, the SSAM is simplified into a mixed integer linear programming problem which could be solved efficiently with commercial solvers. Finally, the performance of the proposed methodology is demonstrated by the standard RBTS-BUS 4 test system and a medium voltage power distribution system in Denmark.

“…Several authors such as, Ingram et al [5], Manassero et al [6], Matsuda et al [7], Apostolov and Tholomier [8], Sidhu and Yin [9], Ozansoy et al [10], have pointed out some key issues about the performance and use of the standard. The most common problems are related to the overload of the communication network capabilities, incorrect configuration of devices, external attacks and eventual defective Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) or communication switches.…”
